[jira] [Commented] (BEAM-4636) Make beam.Run() (and/or friends) thread-safe.

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-4636?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16575337#comment-16575337 ] 

Henning Rohde commented on BEAM-4636:
-------------------------------------

[~exm] I think this should be fixed. I also refactored the Go Dataflow runner into a dataflowlib and a driver (similarly to the universal runner), so that you can use the lib directly without flags.

> It would be nice to be able to launch dataflow pipelines in parallel. 
> For example, here is my use case:
>  * I consume data produced by my clients/customers.
>  * I need to launch a pipeline on an event dispatch.
>  * I may receive multiple events, from multiple customers at the same time.
>  * Go code could be simpler if synchronization/cooperation wouldn't be needed from goroutines handling each customer. In particular, setting options through flags is cumbersome.
>  * Launching dataflow pipelines serially may not scale if I am able to sign up many customers.
